Summary

The game featured a high-powered cEDH match between five commanders with complex interactions and explosive turns. Early plays focused on ramp and setting up mana sources, such as Dockside Extortionist generating treasures and various rituals fueling the graveyard and mana base. A key moment was the casting of Ad Nauseam, which allowed the player to draw a large portion of their deck to find critical combo pieces. Despite the life loss risks, the player carefully managed their resources and graveyard to set up a lethal sequence. Using a combination of reanimation, ritual effects, and powerful artifacts like Underworld Breach, they piled mana and card advantage to assemble their win condition. The game concluded with a Peer into the Abyss cast for a massive card draw, followed by a Twinflame combo on a token-producing creature, which overwhelmed opponents and secured the victory.
